Di Marzio: Ronaldo offered to Milan amid Chelsea’s concrete interest in Leao

By Isak Möller -

Cristiano Ronaldo is looking for a new club before the closure of the transfer window and he has been offered to AC Milan. It stems from Chelsea and their concrete interest in Rafael Leao, a report claims. 

Leao was named the best player in Serie A last season and he was indeed a key figure for Milan in their Scudetto success. Inevitably, he has attracted the interest of a few big clubs, including Todd Boehly’s Chelsea.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, as cited by FraNasato, Jorge Mendes is working hard to find a new club for Ronaldo. The latter was even offered to Milan in an attempt to unlock Leao’s move to Chelsea, but the Rossoneri made their stance very clear.

They want to renew Leao’s contract and the Portuguese winger will not move this summer. Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara have always referred to the €150m release clause and not even the Ronaldo solution has changed their minds.

It remains to be seen if Milan will be able to reach an agreement with Mendes for the contract renewal, which has turned out to be tougher than expected.

  1. I’d take Ronaldo in a heartbeat were it not for the fact that he’ll want more wages than the rest of the squad put together.

  2. If ronaldo agree for a wage of 7million, Plus only autorenewal with 15 goals per season (and above), or declining wage if performance not as expected for following season

    but then he is ronaldo he wont agree to this. but having him will boost morale of squad just like what ibra did for us

    i trust maldini on this

  3. If acmilan do not just decide to sell Leao on their terms i belief will loss him on Zero .
    Because his agent will never alllow this year to renew and after this year he will be his last year on contract. Mends will ask huge Comision.
    So Decision making is the best part of leadership.
    I requwst the Admin of this site to keep to note as a record of acmilan R Leao Contract Renewal.

  4. Hell no. Only players I am accepting from Utd are Sancho and Elanga. If Utd want Leao, we can do a straight swap for Sancho. With Chelsea, give me Ziyech, Pulisic plus 25M… I take the deal.

      1. Marcus Rashford would look like Mbappe playing in Serie A.
        There are a lot of ManUtd players that would be great in a lesser league like Serie A with less physical and technical qualities

  5. Hell no to Ronaldo. His ego is way to big. The team would have to dance to his tunes and if he wont be allowed to be the main man, he would turn the atmosphere into a downward spiral. Not to mention his gigantic wages as well. No thanks, not even for free. :Þ

  6. I hate Ronaldo. Please keep him far away from Milan. I also don’t like Mendes. We can give up on Leao as long as he has Mendes as agent. He’s only in it for the money. No heart. Leao will be a wandering player just like Zlatan. He’ll play where people pay. You can see in his Instagram how much he likes money.
